Fed, Bernanke Must Get Out of ‘Crisis’ Mode

By Dan Weil

The Federal Reserve needs to back off a bit from its extreme policy easing, as the economy already is in recovery mode, says Jim Paulsen, chief investment strategist at Wells Capital Management.

The economy grew 3 percent in the fourth quarter. If the Fed doesn’t back off, it risks sparking inflation, Paulsen tells Yahoo.

"They need to get out of that crisis mindset, because I don’t believe this country is any longer in crisis,” he says.
